Letter: Tired of Fall River's trashy politics

Call it another fee for the residents of the city of Fall River; not just for taxpayers, but a fee for every individual putting a bag of trash on city sidewalks for our city employees to pick up. It will cost you a couple bucks.

There’s plenty of money in trash, and Mayor Will Flanagan is eyeing this money to fill the holes in his administration’s foolish spending on bad decision-making. Like our former “rain tax mayor,” Bob Correia, now we have the “trash bag mayor,” Flanagan.

History always repeats itself in Fall River. After more than one term, they want to be dictators and the City Council is the puppet show whose hands are tied and mouths are silenced. No vote, no say, no solutions; just do what I say.

The plan is to pick the pockets of everyone with fees and fines — Fall River politics at its best. Our City Council, the mayor and his administration needs to be dismissed next election for no accomplishments, just following this mayor with all his pipe dreams. This is Fall River politics, where politicians don’t plan on failing; they just fail to plan.
